Over at FB, none other than @gailsimone.bsky.social said THIS about our game:

In #Otherscape, going through a cubicle maze is its own adventure

Cubicle Maze
Endless rows of identical workstations spread out through a massive work room, color coded by company division. Everyone looks the same, uses the same nonsense jargon, even knows when to duck when a minibot comes flying overhead. A typical merc would stand out like a soon-to-be-crushed thumb.
* Someone engages you in conversation (gain suspecting-2, and if not fully Mitigated, also alarm-2)
* Due to your action, a worker near you falls behind on a task and is shunted out of the Domain, fired, and now also in debt (Make the Future Bleaker)
* A cluster of workers are clearly under extreme duress, essentially tortured by their mental tasks (guilty-2 or angry-2)
* A work team in a meeting room mistake you for an expert and ask for your input on a project (embarrassed-3 or alarm-2)
* You need to approach someone to approve something for you (New Challenge: Empty Suit, page XX)

My love for #Otherscape continues, here's something you can buy from a shop called Video James

Item name: Flying Mount of the Hundred Attempts
Description: This luminous winged mount drops at an ungodly low rate from a virtually impossible to find NPC. Fast and steady, its rarity is its real value. Has a known issue where the mount despawns (disappears) during tight turns, especially while high above ground.
Feature tags: very rare flying mount, prestige loot, garner gamer attention, graceful flight
Weakness tag: tight turns

Show me another game where you can face this sort of challenge #Otherscape

BURIED IN THE NOISE
Hmm? What? I’m just replying to someone. Heh, look at this meme. Oh, a new trailer for that movie, with what’s her name. Wait, an ad, why isn’t the blocker – What! I can get a skin of her new hair? And there’s a discount?? Yeah okay, sure, I’ll be with you in a minute…

distracted-2

* Give the PCs the least amount of attention possible
- Forget what was just said (reduce convinced by 1 tier)
- Start to suspect the PCs are some kind of an ad campaign (gain uncaring-3 or finds-you-hilarious-3)

* Gasp at the disrespect they’re getting from the PCs
- Post something hurtful (upset-2 or bad-rep-2)

#LegendInTheMist #LitM Review for Hearts of Ravensdale:

Review text by Roland:
Congratulations on your exceptional work on the Legend of Mist series. I discovered role- playing games when I was fifteen, 44 years ago, in a small French town, and I have played hundreds of them throughout my life, searching for the most inspiring ones. Never, ever have I been so captivated, so immersed, so inspired by the texts and illustrations of a game. The rules, the setting, and the overall presentation are like a dream... I am approaching my twilight years, and I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this gift you have given to role-players around the world, this ray of light, full of creative joy, open- mindedness, maturity, dreaminess, and poetry. In times as dark as ours, every spark of genius restores faith in humanity.

Not sure. I'm looking for something that smells like this:

Eran Aviram@nnesk· Sep 24

One of the many, many reasons His Majesty the Worm (by @riseupcomus.bsky.social ) is first on my "next to try" list:

Brain Spider
Sorcerous Strategist
Giant spiders with huge pulsing brains for bodies. They’re gross
as hell. They speak through headache-inducing telepathy.
Brain spiders act like Saturday morning cartoon villains.
They say things like, “Nyehh, you’ll never get out of my web
this time!” They tell people their plans so they feel smart. They
make web-based puns

New draft of "that game what I can use for a one-shot and there's HP so I can hit goblins right":

Eran Aviram@nnesk· Sep 10

First draft of my new 2-page "I need a dungeon crawler for a single session, something I can play with newbies" game. @avivor.com , @evyatron.bsky.social , I imagine this even becoming the character sheet itself, in the future. GM gets their own 1 page, and also a 1-page dungeon.

Easily one of the things I'm most proud of, this is a clever and powerful game. And it looks incredible

Eran Aviram@nnesk· Oct 22

Yaaas

This is @macguffinandco.bsky.social 's Pitcrawler, 1 on 1 game that evokes Fighting Fantasy feels. Simple and straightforward system, lots and lots of tables. Been running it for my wife and it's lots of fun!
